“It was the deal that changed Manchester City, the Premier League and the football landscape forever.
On 1 September 2008, Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s Abu Dhabi United Group agreed a £200m deal to take over City.
Ten years earlier they had been in the third tier of English football. With that deal, City became the richest club in the world and had the money to buy the very best footballing talent on the planet. A decade on they have spent more than £1.4bn on players, won three Premier League titles and become established as one of Europe’s superpowers.” BBC Sport 1/09/2018

I’d say Abramovich’s takeover of Chelsea in 2003 was the deal that changed the premier league and football landscape forever.

Although the football has changed the big difference is how the club is managed. New infra structure, training facilities, Academy,socoal houseing, College this is how the club has changed in stature I go to City ladies matches and that has also been good for the club. I am enjoying it all while I can because it is unlikely I will see the end of the next ten years..I am happy enough with City and the moans about minor issues do not bother me..life too short

Cityboy….City v Everton 1944 season. We lost 3-1. Everton had a great team out and played some wonderful football despite both teams being short of regulars due to the war which was still going on
